Hi,
I just wanted to briefly report on our trip to DL for 9/25 - 9/28.
We arrived Wed around noon (we flew from San Francisco)
The park was empty! I've never seen it like this. (although we usually go in Apr)
We walked on every ride, including all the mountains (except for Matterhorn)
Thursday was just as great!! Friday starting getting a little busy but we we're able to still do most of the rides 2-3 times.
We had a SAP pass for my daughter who was recently diagnosed with diabetes but we never needed it! lol!
We ate at the Blue Bayou, always good! We ate dinners at the Rainforest Cafe, we love this place!
We only spent 1/2 a day (maybe 4 hours) at DCA. We went on Soarin over Ca about 4 times, walked right on. We did some of the other rides but we didn't do the coaster, Mailboomer or the swingy rides. Flik's Fun Fair is cute.... We had to laugh when they checked to see if we were wearing our seat belts on the Heimlich train! We're 62, 44, 14 & 10. You'll see........ We did find the
4-leaf clover.
We did watch the Electric Parade and this is always incredible!!
Cinderella's step-sisters were teasing the kids and they got a big thrill out of it!:p
My only disapointment was Friday, my daughter's 14th BD, we went to have our photo with Mickey. This was important to my daughter but on the way out that night we stopped to pick up the photo and the girl said that the photographer messed up and cut one of us out of the photo! We didn't have time to get another. Oh, well.
We stayed at the Anaheim Plaza Inn & Suites. This was fine, no thrills but totally within walking distance and it has a really big pool! We swam the 3 nights when we got back from the park and the pool was empty!
I think we'll change from Aprll to Sept for our yearly trips.
Is Sept always empty???
My only suggestion is that DCA should have the same hous as DL. DCA is so beautiful at night that it's a shame it closes at 6:00pm!
Well, that's it!
Ciao.....
:cool:
